I would have left earlier if we could get into our next campground earlier. We have been RVing full time for 3 years now, so we have been around. We are a family with 5 respectful kids 13 to 2. We felt SO disrespected here and like we were constantly looking over our shoulders. The manager makes through our tiny pull through touching our stuff multiple times. My 5yo knows to stay out of others sites! My husband and I are pretty chill, but this was ridiculous and way over the top! She and a friend walked into our site and were peeking in and touching our Clam and when my husband went out they tried to pass it off as being interested in getting one. Another time, she walked through our little site, commented to herself on our 2yo crying, and messed with our hammock. The third time we had a window open by our door and she came over, stuck her head in, and started looking around and talking to my husband. Then said she had complaints of our campsite being to messy. We had our Clam with 3 chairs in it, a wagon, 4 bikes, hammock, and 3 things sitting on our table. My husband said, "Really??" and she quickly walked away. Because of our interactions with her and her comments of others complaining about our supposed mess,we did not feel welcome. I gave 2 stars because we did feel safe here. It wasn't totally ghetto. There are 0 kid amenities. No pool, playground, etc. There is a coin op laundry and a small fenced dog area. All of the roads and sites are covered in rocks (not gravel) which make it super hard to pull a wagon, ride a trike, etc. Of you stop over, stay in your camper and don't even set a flower pot outside. We won't be visiting again under this management.

Geographically this place is placed smack dab in the middle of old run down trailer homes as far as the eye can see. I was looking to camp in one of there dry camp sites for the weekend. As I approached the front desk, Karen I think that was her name, acted like she was full and this was like getting a room at a 5 star luxury hotel. LOL This wasn't the place, run down. As I smelled alcohol and cigarettes on here breathe from across the counter. This place is in need of an update and wasn't a safe place to be. I'd try somewhere else this isn't the place you are looking for. You also can't dry camp for more than one night here. Which isn't on their website anywhere. I would stay here if my life depended on it. A few of their regular RV folks walked in with 2 teeth and smelled like they hadn't taken a shower in a month. I guess the showers aren't working here as well. To top it off Karen approached my car and made a snide remark as I made this review. Just find another place to camp. This isn't the place you are looking for.

I can recommend that someone might park overnight, but you have to watch out for the potholes and gullies in the poorly leveled gravel roads. Currently, there are such insane restrictions and rude, unethical and unprofessional management that it is simply not a pleasant place to stay.

It was closed but I left a message. Next day, no water pressure and no call back. Called again and was told that water was out in the entire campground and they had no idea when it would be fixed. No updates that entire day. I went to the office to inquire. There were 5 people with campground shirts on (employees) standing around outside talking. I asked the employee inside about the water situation. She said she didn't know and told me to talk to one of the people outside, apparently one was the manager. I inquired with him. He said the back flow preventer was broken and he had ordered a part but didn't have it delivered overnight because he thought it would arrive sooner and didnt want to pay extra. I had to ask when he thought it would be repaired, so he had to tell me tomorrow by noon at the latest. The rest of the employees looked at me like I was a criminal for even asking. I walked away. Come to find out not a soul was informed even after that about the water situation. They had everyone's phone number, so a call or a text could easily have been sent...the campground was about half full. And they obviously had enough employees to inform guests. Nope. In the evening I asked some others in the campground if they were informed or updated. No one had been, even those in the cabins. Not even those that arrived after hours and picked up their pre-prepared welcome packets (no note about the water). They weren't happy when I told them it had been out a while and the office was well aware. Anyway, next day no water at noon. We needed water for a variety of reasons so we wound up getting a hotel room at about 2:30 pm. Next day, returned to the rv to break down and leave. Water was on. No call back, no note, no refund or partial rebate, no apology. I guess their theory is that shit happens, so just suck it up and don't ask questions or expect customer service. ‍ I'll be camping in the area again, but certainly not here.

    Very nice and well kept campground. We really appreciate the huge dog park and the recently…read morereplaced fencing is very nice. Since we stayed there a few months ago they have pruned back some shrubbery along the side fence so it's a nicer place to walk your dog. We had to stay a few more days at the last minute and the management helped us find a spot during a high volume camping time.

    Can't reserve spots. It's a first come first serve. No need to stop in the office. Drive around,…read morepick a spot and Paul will come around and check you in. Good luck finding a halfway level spot. We were lucky and it wasn't busy so we got a nice wide spot near the bathrooms and showers and laundry. In the main area. ( full hookup by office) there is no sewer connections and no cable. Could only get 3 off channels. We are here "off season" and the restaurant doesn't open until May 2. It's quite a walk down the pier to the store and restaurant. There are cabins on other side of marina from Rv sites. Plenty of ramps to put boat in water. There is not a lot of signage where to go so got to ask many questions instead of someone explaining things to you. Prices are cheap right now. Average of $29 per night.

    With several campground options in the Lake Cumberland area, I think I found my favorite…read more Initially, I had planned on staying at Falls Creek Camp Ground which was just a few miles up the road, but after I discovered Conley Bottom was almost the same rate AND CB has full hookups, I made a last minute route here. When we pulled in, it was about to storm and almost dark. We were greeted at the store which was apparently closed. The gentleman explained that he would just come by in the morning to collect the due. He also said that there isn't any pre-booking available, everything is walk up only. Right now the rate in the first RV area is $24 per night. The rate increases for the season on 5/20/17. The second area RV section doesn't include sewer hook ups and is $4 cheaper. The second area is where the playground and dock access that leads to the marina is and seemed to currently be more popular than the first area. The views from both sections overlook the marina and beautifully picturesque. They have several large, pull through sites. We stayed in site L which was the closest one to the lake. None of the sites have lake access, but the marina is within a few minutes walk. A very important and possible deal breaker for anyone concerned about the drive there is that it is a narrow road and if you're heading in late when the boats are headed home, they take up most of the road and you practically have to pull off to allow them to pass.

They have bathrooms but were all closed up where I went. I asked a local business if they are just open during summer and they said it actually just re-opened last summer. I asked if the rumor of dead bodies was true and they said that yes there were lots of dead bodies found here from jumping off the rocks or getting stuck in the rocks deep down below. But anyways, on the opposite side of the story.. there are plenty of floating docks for people to chill on during summer. Just sitting there listening to the bird was very peaceful.. gorgeous view.

It's well maintained in the most part (one fallen tree but nothing too difficult to get around). It's about a mile ish there and back but drops you at an old quarry with amazing blue water that you can swim in or kayak. 5/5 would recommend to a friend!
